    I pay $10/month for copilot because it saves me a lot more than $10 in time not spent typing out boilerplate or searching through garbage documentation.

    It frees up my mind to focus on the actual software architecture instead of the quirks of the language.


  • Semicolons are optional in JavaScript unless you are combining multiple statements on a single line, which is generally not something you should be doing anyway.

    I avoid them whenever possible. It encourages people to write poorly formatted code. But then I’m a python dev so I tend to be opinionated when it comes to whitespace.

    He says it to get views. The only place you might hear ‘aboot’ is in Newfoundland. Aboat is I think an eastern thing as well. I rarely hear in in BC.

    Dude is from Vancouver, which means he should have a PNW accent. There are some differences between Vancouver and Seattle accents but on the whole they are considered one of the most subtle and neutral in North America.

    If you want the American equivalent word, ask someone to pronounce the word ‘roof’. Canadians will pronounce the ‘oo’ like in boot but a lot of Americans will say ‘ruff’ or ‘rough’.
